Government Calls Emergency Meeting To Resolve Best Way Of Doing Nothing
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull called together his party for crisis talks this evening, to consider the different options available for doing sweet f*ck all.
In the end, they opted to do nothing.
Mr Turnbull said it was critically important to hear from elected members on the various ways they could not do anything. “Eighteen months ago we decided that, as a party, we would do nothing on marriage equality. So it was urgent, it was crucial, that we meet again today to resolve once again to do nothing.
“That’s what we’re about as a government”.
Nice one.
